ESS5 INWTM for Estonia incorrect

Due to an error affecting the recording of the timing variables, variable INWTM ("Interview length in minutes, main questionnaire") should not be considered a valid representation of total interview length in Estonia in ESS5. INWTM for Estonia will thus be removed from the next edition (edition 2.0) of the ESS5.

ESS5 New edition (1.1) of interviewer data

Edition 1.1 of the interviewer data for ESS round 5 was released on December 19 2011. In the new edition, the interviewer age variable (INTAGEA) for Bulgaria has been corrected.
